Best Eyelids/Eyebrows for a Late Type 3?

Howdy,

I bought some cheapie eyebrows for $22 for my Beetle at one of the VW joints in Adelaide and 2 weeks later they had rust spots (seriously)!

I want to get a nice set for my '72 Type 3, but unsure what to get. I saw an Ad in the latest Aussie VW Mag about Empi replica stainless ones for $65 that are available specifically for Type 3, but have seen others listed for sale here for around $30 - some with blue/red doo dars, and ones without.

Has anyone got any thoughts on what are the best value as far as
1) Fit Properly (don't fall off)
2) Constructed well (nice finish, won't rust)
3) Look sweet

I don't mid paying more bickies if there are tangible benefits to be had

Cheers o'knowledgeable ones
